  • Ultrastar Enterprise SSDs
  • RAID-configured HGST drives

Our certified engineers use PC-3000 tools and Class 100 cleanroom facilities to recover data from even the most severely damaged HGST drives. We follow strict industry protocols to ensure your data is safely extracted, verified, and returned without compromise.

Try These First: DIY Troubleshooting Tips

  • Check your connections: Ensure the drive is securely connected to your computer or enclosure. Try a different USB cable or SATA port.
  • Listen for noises: Clicking or grinding often indicates physical damage. Power off immediately and don’t attempt to open the drive.
  • Test on another system: Sometimes the problem lies with your computer, not the drive. Try accessing the drive from a different machine.
  • Run built-in diagnostics: Use disk management tools like CrystalDiskInfo or Windows CHKDSK to identify bad sectors or corrupted file systems.
  • Avoid DIY disassembly: Never open a hard drive outside of a certified cleanroom. This risks permanent data loss due to dust contamination.

If the above steps don’t work or you suspect hardware damage, it’s best to power down the device and consult our recovery specialists.
